Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of data center monitoring technology, specifically a data acquisition system for data center monitoring. Background Technology

[0002] Monitoring environmental parameters in a data center is crucial for ensuring its stable operation. Specifically, the data that needs to be monitored includes the following aspects:

[0003] I. Temperature and Humidity Monitoring

[0004] Temperature: Servers, storage devices, and other hardware in data centers generate a significant amount of heat during operation. Excessive heat can accelerate hardware aging and potentially cause malfunctions, leading to data loss or business interruptions. Therefore, it is essential to monitor the temperature within the data center in real time to ensure that equipment operates within a suitable temperature range.

[0005] Humidity: Both excessively high and low humidity levels in the computer room can damage hardware equipment, leading to problems such as circuit board corrosion and static electricity buildup. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the relative humidity in the computer room to prevent damage to the equipment caused by excessive moisture or dryness.

[0006] II. Air Quality Monitoring

[0007] Dust particle concentration: Dust particles in the air can damage hardware equipment in data centers, such as clogging vents and affecting heat dissipation. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the concentration of dust particles in the air to ensure that the air in the server room is clean.

[0008] Hazardous gas content: Data centers may contain some harmful gases, such as carbon dioxide and ammonia. If the concentration of these gases is too high, it may damage the equipment or affect the health of maintenance personnel.

[0009] However, most current data center monitoring systems use single wired monitoring devices for data acquisition. This not only involves complex wiring and difficult installation, but also prevents the installation of monitoring sensors in specific locations or in confined spaces, such as installing particle concentration sensors at fan inlets.

[0010] Therefore, a data acquisition system for data center monitoring is needed to address this problem. Utility Model Content

[0011] The purpose of this invention is to provide a data acquisition system for data center monitoring. This invention involves installing temperature and humidity sensors, dust particle concentration sensors, or harmful gas sensors in the server racks, on top of the racks, or at air inlets within the data center, as needed. Data is then directly transmitted to the monitoring terminal via a wireless data transmission unit, avoiding the cabling issues inherent in traditional systems. This wireless approach allows for installation in any confined space, enabling monitoring of areas prone to anomalies within the data center. It significantly reduces installation and cabling difficulties, offering simple and convenient operation. Furthermore, this invention allows for easy storage of anomaly information and timely transmission to relevant personnel via smart terminals. Staff can also easily connect to the server for data retrieval via smart terminals. This invention requires minimal space, is simple and convenient to operate, and is highly practical.

[0012] This utility model is implemented as follows:

[0013] A data center monitoring and data acquisition system includes a temperature and humidity sensor installed in a server rack in the data center, the temperature and humidity sensor being connected to a wireless data connection device, a dust particle concentration monitoring sensor fixedly installed at the top of the server rack, the dust particle concentration monitoring sensor being connected to a wireless data connection device, and a harmful gas monitoring sensor installed adjacent to the dust particle concentration monitoring sensor, the harmful gas monitoring sensor being connected to a wireless data connection device.

[0014] The temperature and humidity sensor, dust particle concentration monitoring sensor, and harmful gas monitoring sensor are all connected to a monitoring terminal via a wireless data connection device. The monitoring terminal includes a server connected to the wireless data connection device, the server is connected to a PC, and a smart terminal is connected wirelessly.

[0015] Furthermore, there is at least one of each of the temperature and humidity sensor, dust particle concentration monitoring sensor, and hazardous gas monitoring sensor. The temperature and humidity sensor is an AM2301A type, the dust particle concentration monitoring sensor is a PM10 type, and the hazardous gas monitoring sensor is a GW-3000D type. The wireless data connection device includes a Wi-Fi unit, a Bluetooth unit, a LoRa unit, or a 4G DTU.

[0016] This application includes a control cabinet in the data center server room, with a touch screen inside the control cabinet. The touch screen is connected to a server, which is also connected to an audible and visual warning device. During installation and debugging, the temperature and humidity sensor, dust particle concentration monitoring sensor, and hazardous gas monitoring sensor are first installed in their respective locations. Then, the power cords of the temperature and humidity sensor, dust particle concentration monitoring sensor, and hazardous gas monitoring sensor are plugged into the power sockets in the server cabinet. Finally, the touch screen is used to connect to the signals of each wireless transmission device for wireless connection. The operation is simple and convenient.

[0017] Furthermore, the smart terminal is a smartphone or tablet computer, and there is at least one smart terminal. This allows staff to easily connect to the server for data queries and receive abnormal data via the smart terminal; the operation is simple, convenient, fast, and highly practical.

[0018] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: By installing temperature and humidity sensors, dust particle concentration monitoring sensors, or harmful gas monitoring sensors in the server racks, on top of the racks, or at air inlets of the data center as needed, and then directly transmitting the data to the monitoring terminal via a wireless data transmission unit, the traditional need for cabling is avoided. This application, through wireless means, can be installed in any small space where anomalies are likely to occur, and can monitor data in areas of the data center that are prone to anomalies as much as possible. It greatly reduces the difficulty of installation and cabling, is simple and convenient to operate, and can easily store abnormal information and send it to the relevant responsible persons in a timely manner through a smart terminal. It also allows staff to easily connect to the server for data querying through a smart terminal. This utility model occupies little space, is simple and convenient to operate, and has strong practicality. Attached Figure Description
